Lessons We Can Learn from TV's Female Detectives

I have written several blog posts about the female detectives who we have come to know through our television screens every week. From Law and Order to Medium to The Closer, it is wonderful to see so many strong women portrayed in a profession that has traditionally been dominated by men. I like to think that Emily Stone, the main character in my novels, would be able to hold her own with these women in her emotional and physical strength as well as her determination to find justice.

I recently came across some important safety tips and simple steps to be assured that your pets will be taken care of in an emergency. I wanted to pass this along. Print out and keep this information wi...

The Beginning of Criminal Profiling…

I've received many questions about profiling from readers. It seems that many people are interested in this technique and how it actually works. I can't blame them because it's an intriguing concept and that's why I studied it along with forensics and criminology.

In my books Compulsion and Dead Game , Emily Stone and her partner Rick Lopez use a technique of criminal profiling to catch their child murderers and pedophiles. I really enjoyed incorporating this technique in my books.

Tragedy in Haiti Puts Everything in Perspective

While I am always pleased at having a new book to add to m...
